AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Parish priest of Redfern in Sydney for over thirty years, Ted Kennedy became part of modern Aboriginal history in Australia. He committed his life to the aboriginal cause and they responded by giving him an honoured place in their story. He became a witness to the world and the church of their claims on justice. With incisive historical skill, Edmund Campion follows Kennedy's growth into legendary status. Far from being a seamless progression towards greatness, his narrative reveals a chequered career punctuated by disappointment failure and loss. At his death in 2005, many called Kennedy a saint. If so, this biography displays him as a human saint of flesh and blood. (Publisher's website)
